Howdy y'all!

I just took the NMBE's Comprehensive Basic Science examination. Our school required that all second year's take it, presumably as a wake up call to 'motivate' us to study hard for Step I.

I'm wondering how representative it is of what I can expect on Step I. Has anyone taken both?

I've been taking practice questions, including NBME's 'old' Step I questions that come with their demo testing software and TPR's practice exam. All of those seem much more straightfoward and more clinically relevant than the questions I took today.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Take care,
